The power to tax given to the U.S. Congress by the Articles of Confederation was limited. Congress could requisition funds from the states, but they did not have the authority to directly tax individuals or regulate commerce.
The articles of confederation gave power to the states and left very little power for the federal government.
The most significant power not given to the Federal government under the Articles of Confederation was the ability to tax. The central government therefore had to way to raise money for defense or important internal projects.
The Articles of Confederation were composed and ratified by the Continental Congress to serve as the first constitution for the United States of America. In the Articles, there was no chief executive. All power described in the Articles was given to the individual states and their representatives in Congress.
